Italy - Biennale Arte 2015

Nino Longobardi presents a colonnade, whichcombines painting and sculpture. Seven solemn pilasterson which a sign moves rapidly, suggesting figuresthat are barely sketched: heroes emergeescaping from an imminent disaster. The Archive ofMemory consists of a metal shelf on which layers ofdrawings are arranged, inhabited by an ample repertoireof faces, skulls and fragments: artifactsfrom Pompei and photographs of concentrationcamps which come together in this space.
